🗑
|
||||
| How is a sliding scale insulin dose determined | SC short-acting or regular insulin to blood glucose test
hospitalized pts/TPN or enteral tube feedings
Subcutaneous insulin ordered that incr as blood glucose incr.
Disadv: delays insulin adm. til hyperglycemia occurs; lg swings in glucose control
🗑
|
||||
| when can you use oral antidiabetic drugs | type 2 w/ lifestyle modifications
ex: Biguanides: Glucophage

🗑
|
||||
| What is MOA of Biguanides | Decrease production of glucose by the liver
Decrease intestinal absorption of glucose
Increase uptake of glucose by tissues
Do not increase insulin secretion from the pancreas (does not cause hypoglycemia)
🗑
|
||||
| What is MOA of Sulfonylureas | Stimulate insulin secretion from the beta cells of the pancreas, increasing insulin levels
Beta cell function must be present
